Flatworms?

[myersb33]

I believe I have some flatworms on a frag and have done a freshwater dip to no avail. They didn’t fall off so I’m not sure exactly what I should do I did the dip about 3-4 days ago.

If you dipped and used a turkey baster or similar right on it and it did not come off it is bot a flatworm.

I dont see any in the picture but maybe i am just missing it. If concerned i would take it out and dip again and make sure you use some force trying to get them off.

Unless you have appropriate fish to handle them a few flatworms can quickly turn into a huge nuisance so you want to make sure you bot introducing them to system.

As I was taking this pic I saw solely the brown part moving which lead me to think it could be algae and yes I took all the necessary steps with a feeding syringe and a dip could just be a small branch piece that got some algae on it

Ya if it was in a dip and you directly hit it with some flow a flatworm would come off pretty easy.
